Central Embassy

Stretching more than 144,000 square meters, Bangkok's Central Embassy makes your average retail mall look downright demure. It's a monster of a shopping complex in a town already known for its commercial behemoths. All those luxury brands are sheathed in a shimmering, shingled colossus right in the heart of one of the city's busiest business districts. Well-established international restaurants, including Din Tai Fung and The Girl & The Pig, join a premium cinema and just about every store you can think of.
